I have decided to cosplay Ginger from "Chicken Run," but, as the character is a chicken, I'm unsure how to go about making it. I'm thinking of keeping a few elements "chicken," such as the legs/feet, but I don't really want to stick a beak on my face all day. How do you guys think I should go about this? I need help in particular with making the feet.

I did a parrot costume once. I used a baseball cap with the brim as my beak. I used something called buckram to shape the top of the brim into a parrot beak. I glued google eyes to the hat and painted my face and neck blue to represent the bird's neck. I'd share a pic, but the person who was supposed to send me the pics never did.
